Shopping Guide
Bandai's candy division are adding confectionery versions of the world-famous characters Mickey and Minnie Mouse to their Tabemas series of Japanese sweets based on popular characters! "Tabemas Disney Mickey Mouse" and "Tabemas Disney Minnie Mouse" faithfully capture the iconic look of these two cuties, complete with yellow shoes (and a red ribbon for Minnie!) made out of nerikiri dough. You can place your orders for these adorable sweets starting Oct. 31 at Omni 7, the shopping site developed by Seven & I Holdings Co., Ltd. They're only available for a limited time during the Christmas period (from Thursday, Dec. 22 until Saturday, Dec. 24), and you can find them at 7-Eleven stores across Japan.
■ About Tabemas
Tabemas is Bandai’s range of character-themed traditional Japanese sweets and takes its name both from the Japanese verb “to eat” and a contraction of “Taberareru Mascot” which means “edible mascot.” Each character’s traits are brought out through blending together red bean paste, sugar, and flour into a shaped dough to make a nerikiri. Not only do they taste delicious, but they have an intricately detailed beauty and they’re almost too cute to eat - their adorableness is making waves all over the internet and beyond!
■ About Tabemas Disney
Tabemas Disney features the all-star lineup of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. Their famous ears and other characteristic features are created using nerikiri dough, so they look just like Mickey and Minnie except they're edible and delicious. Check out that charming pose, with those beady eyes shining up at you! "Tabemas Disney Mickey Mouse" is filled with brown sugar syrup-flavour bean paste while "Tabemas Disney Minnie Mouse" is filled with strawberry-flavour bean paste, and both flavours are sure to charm you with the delicate taste and moist texture that are unique to Japanese sweets.
